Sink RepairLeaky drains are common in fundamental sink repair work, yet easily handled. The very first thing you'll need to do is find where the leak is coming from. To do this, let water run from the faucet into the sink. Ensure you have a container positioned to capture water. Shine a flashlight onto the pipes, and cover a paper towel around every one to identify the area of the leakage. Next, tighten up the couplings in the drain with the leak. If this doesn't solve the problem, attempt cleaning the pipeline threads and replacing the gasket. To do this, you'll have to separate the sink basket from the basin, utilizing a wrench to loosen the nuts. Keep the basin in location with a screwdriver or a set of pliers in the crosspiece.
